Website Review and Suggestions

**SearchAnyway** · 09-22-2006, 05:39 PM

Some may call it self-promotion, others may call it a sincere act of altruism. Actually, it's mostly just my pride talking.
Many of you have heard of SearchAnyway I'm sure; well, we've just launched our new, completely re-designed website for your viewing and monetizing pleasure

www.searchanyway.com

I'm actually interested in your thoughts about it. Maybe some of you could check it out, see if there's any bugs we missed, let me know your thoughts. Any and all comments would be appreciated!!

Cheers,
Sanjay

It looks nice enough.. but..

You have no doctype; it's tables.. bleaaaaaahhh ; you're using <embed> to put the flash in which will cause IE users to have to click twice to see your movie; you're using deprecated <font> tags; no headings (Hx) of any sort, they're all images (bad for accessibility and not good for search engines); you're using PX for font sizes which prevents IE users from resizing text for readability.

Replace your headings with REAL Headings using the H1-H6 tags, and don't style a paragraph or a span to create what is should be an Hx.

Insert your flash with another method, several listed here;

You're not doing anything with your layout that can't be done with CSS, which save you a ton of time and energy in maintenance and eventual redesigns.

Dump the deprecated tags and come up to HTML 4.01 and use a Strict Doctype.

layout is very nice
nice colors
i think it is better to use same font size for all text.
the text under webmaster advantages is morethan the rest of the text on the webpage.
the topic of your site is about PPC.
better to use it as a tagline under your logo
